Oceans embodies modern work culture at its finest, with top notch companies from around the world as clients. I work in Finance for Hyperlane, a company pioneering work in permission-less interoperability for the blockchain space. During my time here, l've learnt a great deal from the work I do and the community at Oceans, while also having loads of fun along the way too.

Hear from our clients

Build your career with hands-on international work experience.

One third of our team is now offshore. What we wanted (and got) was capable individuals who were smart and motivated but also versatile to apply themselves to the different problems and opportunities that arise in a growing landscape.

At this point, I can’t live without Rameez! Whenever my peers see how he moves or what he does for me, they all ask for an introduction to Oceans. If you feel like you’ve been trying to find the perfect EA solution with someone offshore, I am putting my own word on the line to tell you… talk to Oceans!
